Reminds me of the term "IBM PC Compatible".
IBM - we understood, was the name of a company.
PC - we thought we understood this
Compatible - never really understood this - what was it compatible with?
|
|
|
|
|
With IBM PCs. Isn't it obvious?
(I guess this was claimed by IBM PC clones?)
|
|
|
|
|
Now, it seems obvious. But, back then, especially for a student like me, it wasn't obvious.

Was?! IBM established at 1911 (with root back to 1885!) and still kicking...

Sorry, is.
From an Indian perspective, IBM was in India during the seventies, when I was too young; and was made to close shop in India in 1977. IBM came back to India around mid-nineties via a company called TISL (Tata Information Systems Services), before coming back again as IBM itself. So, during 1990, IBM was a was in India.

A PC clone that could boot and run the very first version of "Flight Simulator".
IIRC, that was the ultimate compatibility test.

So I can´t have been a real Doom player back then, I had to wait all that time.
Too bad I didn't know.
Doom was epic, and so was its successor, Castle Wolfenstein. I didn't like to have to shoot the dog, though.

I have send a article at Submit@codeproject.com named Simple Chessboard Graphics. Did CodeProject received my article?
Please let me know if possible.

Wrong place to ask: http://www.codeproject.com/Forums/1641/Article-Writing.aspx[^] might be better.
But submitting an article by email will always take longer that directly entering it as it requires a staff member to read, format and post it for you - and it's a public holiday in Canadia so the staff are all off enjoying themselves!
It'll get to moderation probably around midday UCT tomorrow, once they have got into work. Then it needs to be moderated, which can take a while depending on the quality, content, and which moderators are available tomorrow to read it. It takes a number of "yes" votes to get published.

Hi All,
I have opened a hornets nest. Accidentally I cleaned a spot on my desk and saw a change in colour to a soft of brown, not happy at that I have cleaned the entire top of the desk. This has led to "I will clean my book case next!" Cleaning am I really that board!
|
|
|
|
|
I truly laughed at that. Just stop before you clean the whole building.

If you're like me you start one thing then in the middle find something else and in the middle find something else...
And I've found my stack is only so deep and if I don't unwind before reaching it's limit I don't get much done!
